Classes

Whether you choose to train on Sunday, Monday or Wednesday, every Harrow Judo class follows the same philosophy: helping every student grow in confidence, character and technical ability—self-improvement, throw by throw.

Mini Judo – Sunday

Fun, Confidence, and the Perfect Start

Our Sunday Mini Judo class is the ideal introduction for younger children and beginners. Through fun, structured activities and age-appropriate techniques, children develop balance, coordination, agility and safe falling skills while learning the values of respect, discipline and perseverance.

Every session builds confidence, encourages teamwork and develops the fundamental movement skills that provide the perfect foundation for a lifelong enjoyment of judo.

Training: Sundays, 9:00am –10:00am

Junior Judo – Monday & Wednesday

Learn, Develop, and Grow

Our Junior Judo classes provide a fun, structured and supportive environment where children develop confidence, coordination and technical skills through the practice of Kodokan Judo.

Each lesson combines throwing techniques, groundwork, movement skills and enjoyable partner exercises while encouraging respect, resilience and self-discipline. Students progress at their own pace, working towards personal goals, gradings and competitions if they choose.

Whether attending once a week or training on both days, every session provides fresh learning opportunities and helps children become stronger, more confident and more capable both on and off the mat.

Training:

  • Monday: 7:00pm – 8:00pm

  • Wednesday: 7:00pm – 8:00pm

Technique, Fitness, and Lifelong Learning

Judo offers far more than physical exercise. Training develops resilience, focus and self-confidence while promoting the traditional values of respect, courtesy and continuous self-improvement in a friendly and welcoming environment.

Whether you choose to train once a week or enjoy additional mat time by attending both sessions, every class offers meaningful progression and the opportunity to become part of the Harrow Judo community.

Training:

  • Monday: 8:00pm – 9:00pm
  • Wednesday: 8:00pm – 9:00pm

Paul is an excellent teacher who combines fun, fitness, technique and practice to develop a love of judo in his students - in my case my two sons. He is very patient with the children who learn but will also push them to develop their skills (and their character) and demonstrate and correct their technique as appropriate. I couldn't speak more highly of it.
